THE INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION YEAR

The International Foundation Year (Studienkolleg) at Karlshochschule International Unversity is a one-year preparatory program comprising English and German language training, German cultural studies, mathematics, and foundations in economics and business administration, designed specifically for international students.

It offers an entry to your desired Bachelor’s degree program, if you have a secondary school degree which qualifies you to study in your home country, but which is not recognized as a higher education entrance qualification in Germany. In this case you need to attend a one-year preparatory program to match the length and contents of your education to what is needed to successfully start your Bachelor’s study program at the Karlshochschule. The International Foundation Year links your school education with undergraduate programs at Karlshochschule and helps you to adjust from the secondary education in your home country to the academic culture and programs in Germany in general and at the Karlshochschule in particular.

Students who pass the International Foundation Year at Karlshochschule successfully will be able to directly join the Bachelor’s programs. Application and admission will apply to both, the foundation year as well as the Bachelor’s study program (1 + 3 years).
